When one insect …. 

… crawls, buzzed on nectar …

…out of a mariposa lily and flies off to the next flower …

Zebra Wasp Takes Wing

… another insect that was over on the next lily …

Sweat Bee Gathering Pollen

… is not far behind. And when she’s gone, if you go over to the lily just up the hill…

Tiny Grey Bee (about 1 cm. long)

Of course, some bees are not grey, or neon green, or yellow. Some are as black as ants.

… and some flowers are, for the moment, without visitors.

There are just a few days for this every year. Out of them is made the next year. That’s the kind of planet this is. Everything else follows.
